Do solid-state drives get slower and slower?

Over the life cycle of an SSD, many factors can affect its performance. One of the most important is the issue of data fragmentation. Unfortunately, there is no way to externally measure the impact of data fragmentation on SSDs. As stated above, test programs may be able to detect the performance difference between an SSD’s internal storage striping with or without performance differences, but this does not significantly impact the user experience. Optimization of the SSD file system will further address this issue in the future.
